This paper describes electrical resistivity, dielectric strength, thermal conductivity, thermal stability and tensile strength of mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin or silicone rubber resin containing alumina powder. The mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin had higher electrical resistivity, dielectric strength and tensile strength than those of virgin mica sheet. Electrical resistivity of mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin containing alumina increased with increasing the amount of alumina. However, dielectric strength and tensile strength of mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin containing alumina decreased with increasing the amount of alumina. The mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin had lower thermal conductivity than that of virgin mica sheet. However, thermal conductivity of mica sheet impregnated with silicone rubber resin conatining alumina increased with increasing the amount of alumina. In the case of thermal stability, thermal degradation of virgin mica sheet and impregnated mica sheet with silicone rubber resin did not occur up to $1100^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively.

Acoustic noise from a transformer, recently, has drawing more and more attentions. One of the main source of the noise is thought to be magnetostriction of the electrical steel sheets which compose transformer core. This paper deals with the magnetostriction of a highly grain-oriented electrical steel sheet measured by using a vector single sheet tester and a three-axial strain gauge. The results show that direction and axis ratio as well as the magnitude of the applied magnetic flux density contribute much to magnetostriction.

It is necessary to measure precisely the magnetic characteristics of electrical steel sheets under rotating magnetic fields, to obtain an accurate numerical performance analysis of electric machines made of electrical steel sheets. In this paper, the two dimensional magnetic characteristics of an electrical steel sheet are measured and explained under rotating magnetic fields using a two-axes-excitation type single sheet tester (SST). Through experiments, the magnetic properties, under rotating magnetic fields, of a non-oriented and grain oriented electrical steel sheet were measured respectively. In addition, the iron losses due to not only the alternating magnetic fields, but also rotating magnetic fields were measured. These experimentally measured results can evidently be applied to the analysis of iron losses in electrical machines.

It is well known that Grain-oriented electrical steel sheets have two dimensional magnetic properties according to the direction of exciting field such as non-linear phase difference between magnetic flux density and magnetic field intensity vectors, different iron loss and permeability even when an alternating magnetic field is applied. The measurement and application of the two dimensional magnetic properties of the Grain-oriented electrical steel sheets, therefore, are very important for the design and precise performance analysis of electric machines made of them. As the direction of exciting field changes, in this paper, the two dimensional magnetic properties of a Grain-oriented electrical steel sheet, i.e., non-linear B-H curves, phase difference between B and H, and iron loss characteristics, are measured using SST(Single Sheet Tester) which has two axes excitation. The measured results are presented in two ways: using $(B,\theta_B)$ method and using hysteresis loops along rolling and transverse directions, respectively.

In this study, a novel Cu composite sheet with embedded high electric conduction path was developed as another alternative for the interconnect materials possessing high electrical conductivity as well as high strength. The Cu composite sheet was fabricated by forming Ag conduction paths not within the interior but on the surface of a high strength Cu substrate by damascene electroplating process. As a result, the electrical conductivity increased by 40% thanks to mesh type Ag conduction paths, while the ultimate tensile strength decreased by 20%. The interfacial fracture resistance of Cu composite sheet prepared by damascene electroplating increased by above 50 times compared to Cu composite sheet by conventional electroplating. For feasibility test for practical application, a leadframe for LED module was manufactured by a progressive blanking and piercing processes, and the blanked surface profile was evaluated as a function of the volume fraction of Ag conduction paths. As Ag conduction path became finer, pressing formability improved.

In this paper, a double-excitation type single sheet tester is developed to measure the magnetic characteristics of the electrical steel sheets. The developed system has the uniform magnetic field area of 20$\times$20mm$^{2}$, and can be applied to the measurement of the magnetic characteristics of the Non-oriented and Grain oriented electrical steel sheets. In the developed system, the magnetic flux density and magnetic field intensity are measured by using B-coil and H-coil, respectively. The B-coil has 1 turn search coil for each direction, and H-coil has 640 and 640 turns for rolling direction and transverse direction on the Im thickness Glass-Epoxy basement, respectively. Through experiments, it Is shown that the system can measure the magnetic characteristics up to 1.87 of magnetic flux density in the rolling direction in case of the Grain oriented electrical steel sheet. The measured results are compared with those measured in Okayama university, .Japan.

The measurement of two-dimensional magnetic properties of electrical steel sheet using single sheet tester (SST) requires to control the B-waveform as sinusoidal. The SST electric circuit, in general, has inductance, and this makes the phase lag in electric current. For this reason, the induced voltages of H- or B-coil may have phase difference from the exciting voltage. In this paper, a new algorithm is developed to compensate the phase difference and makes the B-waveform control efficient. The developed algorithm experimentally calculates the phase difference based on the measured waveform of the induced voltage for the magnetic field intensity along transverse direction. By using the proposed algorithm, the two-dimensional magnetic properties of grain-orientated electrical steel sheet (30PG110) is measured up to 2T. By comparing the measured B- and H-waveforms, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is proven.

This paper presents vector magnetic properties of an electrical steel sheet (ESS) employed for electric machine and iron loss analysis considering the vector magnetic properties of the ESS. The vector magnetic properties of the ESS are measured by using a two-dimensional single sheet tester and modeled by an E&S vector hysteresis model to be applied to finite element method. The finite element analysis considering the vector magnetic properties is applied to iron loss analysis of a three-phase induction motor model, and the influences of the vector magnetic properties on the iron loss distribution are verified by comparing with numerical results from a typical B-H curve model.

The shield effect of 4 layered shield case was investigated in this paper. The material of the case was non-oriented SiFe sheet with a thickness of 0.5mm. The size of the case was 100mm wide, 100mm high and 300mm long. Relative permeability of SiFe sheet was needed to calculate shield effect. It was obtained from the measurement by a ferrite yoke and from the calculation by eddy current FEM analysis. Three configurations were used to connect both ends of SiFe sheet. First one is a connection by double-welded butt. Second one is to put the sheet the same material above the confronted both ends of the sheet to avoid a leakage magnetic flux. The last one is ideally without any connection. The shield effect of the second one agreed well with the last one and showed the shield effect of -40dB.

We investigated the sheet resistance properties of tungsten nitride thin films deposited by RF and DC sputtering system. It deposited at various conditions that determine the sheet resistance. The properties of the sheet resistance of these films were measured under various conditions. Sheet resistance analysed under the flow rate of the argon gas and contents of nitrogen from nitrogen-argon gas mixtures. We found that these sheet resistance were largely depend on the temperature of substrate, gas flow rate and RF power. Very high and low sheet resistance of tungsten films obtained by DC sputtering. As the increase of contents of nitrogen gas obtained from nitrogen-argon gas mixture, tungsten nitride thin films deposited by the reactive DC sputtering and the sheet resistance of these films were increased.
